23/24 minutes in the Saints game ios discussed. Poor old Fox and even James Richardson apologises as other journo says his performance 'one of the worst PL performance ever seen'. Bit OTT http://www.theguardian.com/football/audio/2013/oct/07/football-weekly-podcast-west-ham-stun-spurs

are people saying Fox shouldn't get stick due to what he has done for us? Or just no-one should get stick ever? If he was a new signing who played so poorly we would be entitled to give stick as he hadn't eyeballed rival fans or anything similar to win over the fans respect.

I actually didn't notice the abuse being too bad today really. I think most really want him to do well. Having said that part of football is groaning and players must be mentally strong. If Adam poorly hits a weak shot there will be groans - it isn't personal just people want better.

I am always rooting for him to do well but he doesn't and is out of his depth. Fact that Shaw misses more games than any other 1st team player means issue is compounded. Saying get behind him isn't the issue and should never boo your own players but positional sense, one footedness and lack of pace make him a liability in PL

Discussed at length but did anyone think he wasn't dreadful today? http://www.theguardian.com/football/2013/oct/06/southampton-swansea-premier-league-matchreport

They haven't been appalling just people expect 100% correct decisions which is unrealistic. Far better standard than we had in L1.

Bet Butler for new accounts - deposit £25 and if first bet loses they credit the £25 back. Standard in many ways but the y gurantee best odds so stuck £25 on Osvaldo first goal at 6/1 Expect the booth at ground will be 7/2 or 4s at best.

Is interesting at what point we want relegation candidates/ rivals to win and start hoping big boys lose. One thing about being in PL is not act actually wanting Hull to beat Man City etc. as wanting no-one around you to get points. Spoils the romance

Tis true - only reason I pay my £5. Such a rich topic that can never be truly exhausted. Wouldn't claim to be puppet master though. Smile CB and you may not be so angry:-)

Swansea fans must be inconsolable - he is yet to predict a win for them this season.

More bile from the so called pundit http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/24338311

Wow heavy duty publication that. Article been up for 3 days and they have 4 comments. You lot are much more interested in the Chingford Gazette than the locals

Was just think this was all gong on during the middle if the day and don't you lot have jobs to do. Disciplinary where I work stealing so much from your employer

The #mydadhatedbritain I saw on twitter earlier were quite amusing.

I always struggle to remember posters names and opinions but you two are the 2 biggest cvnts I have seen on here

Find myself agreeing with Turkish. Such a lack of respect and memory from some for all the work he did. Some ***t saying he nearly blew our promotion - yeah the one we all thought was a certainty to happen and NA had nothing to do with it. f***** unbelievable!

I took a screenshot of your original confession and more than happy to be a witness for the prosecution when you are in court where you belong. Sooner we stamp out these secret imbibers the better. For me it spoils the occasion. #potato

We have the highest amount of possession at home of all teams in PL. Not always a relevant stat but we are totally controlling games at home albeit against weak opposition so far. Yesterday 8 of our 10 outfield players made more passes than Palace's top passer.

Totally agree only so much insight can be given. I think a lot to do with tone and passion. If you switched the content between Alan Shearer and Gary Neville and no doubt people would still slag off Shearer. Who for me is not the most excitingest

You're obsessed mate. Chill and let it go. Ps. You love him

Anyone questioning the man's genius now?

Anyone who bets with them is a complete mug- check the markets. Had 9/2 for Osvaldo goal. 11/2 in Corals on premise and always better value online. Joke that they don't staff the booths after game. But as always you can vote with your feet but they won't ahem

Quality article http://www.theguardian.com/sport/football-cliches/2013/sep/27/how-to-be-a-co-commentator?CMP=twt_gu

My spirit drops when he doesn't say something funny and predict a defeat for us. That is the point to Lawro and his threads.

Saw something on a thread a few days back about MP and Luke Shaw not getting on Looks pretty serious https://mobile.twitter.com/SouthamptonFC/status/383299550812721152/photo/1?screen_name=SouthamptonFC
